The Summer I Ate the Rich (Paperback)

A gripping, genre-blending YA horror about what happens when a Haitian American girl uses her previously hidden zombie abilities to exact revenge on the wealthy elites who've caused her family pain. Brielle Petitfour loves to cook. But with a chronically sick mother and bills to pay, becoming a chef isn't exactly a realistic career path. When Brielle's mom suddenly loses her job, Brielle steps in and uses her culinary skills to earn some extra money. The rich families who love her cooking praise her use of unique flavours and textures, which keep everyone guessing what's in Brielle's dishes. The secret ingredient? Human flesh. Written by the storytelling duo Maika Moulite and Maritza Moulite, The Summer I Ate the Rich is a biting, smart horror inspired by Haitian zombie lore that explores themes of vengeance, family, and young love - and scrutinizes the socioeconomic and racial inequity that is the foundation of our modern times. Just like Brielle's clients it will have you asking: What's for dinner?
